More info...
Yes. Robin Boustead, who walked the upper route in 2008/9 has written a guidebook to the trail and it has been published by Trailblazer Guides. This guidebook covers the upper route and so helps you get from Kanchenjunga to Humla or Darchula.
Great Himalaya Trail lower route
If you are interested in the lower route, then so far no specific guidebook is available, however, due to the lower elevations, the ease of access and communications, you’ll find logistics much easier to manage. There are people currently planning to walk this route in 2011 with the aim of documenting trail options, places of interest, accommodation possibilities etc.
Section guides
If you are aiming to trek a smaller section of the GHT, then there are many Nepal trekking guidebooks that could help you with planning and background information on Nepal, especially for the more established treks.
